Peace&JoyPureRamieStudioByJo
My name is Jo. I grew up in Yunnan, China — where ramie has been woven by hand for over a thousand years — and for 22 years my family has made it our life's work to bring this extraordinary fiber to the world.
Most people outside Asia have never heard of ramie. That is about to change for you. Ramie is a natural plant fiber that is stronger than cotton, more breathable than linen, naturally antibacterial, and grown without pesticides. It has a subtle silk-like luster that linen simply does not have. And unlike most fabrics, it gets softer and more beautiful the more you wear and wash it. Once you try it, ordinary linen feels like a compromise.
Every garment in our studio starts as raw ramie fiber and ends as a finished piece after 7 days of careful handwork — cutting, stitching, pressing, and inspecting by hand. We do not rush. We do not mass-produce. Each shirt, pant, jacket, and short is made one at a time, with the same attention my family has given this craft for two decades.
We make men's clothing because we believe men deserve garments that feel as good as they look — clothing that breathes in summer heat, moves with the body, and improves with age. Not disposable. Not synthetic. Something real.
When you buy from us, you are buying from Jo directly. I answer every message, help with every sizing question, and stand behind every piece we ship. If something is not right, we make it right. That is the promise of a family studio — and it is a promise we have kept for 22 years.
Thank you for finding us. We hope our ramie clothing brings you exactly what the name says — peace, and joy.
